Unbelievable property! Extremely clean, every possible amenity was at the house. Fantastic communication with the hosts! Location was so close to Wells & Kennebunkport. Walked to several restaurants! We LOVED it!
What a gem of a find! Franny and Luke's home exceeded our expectations in almost every way.The location is perfect, tucked away on a beautiful quiet street yet just minutes from town, shops and everything you'd want to explore. The house itself is warm, cozy and beautiful. Three very spacious bedrooms with the most comfortable beds, and a thoughtful touch we really appreciated, both soft and firm pillow options on every bed. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay, and checkout instructions were refreshingly simple.A couple of things worth noting for future guests: 1. The driveway is on the narrower side and a portion is shared with the neighboring property. When both households have cars parked, maneuvering can get a little tight, not an issue for experienced drivers but something to keep in mind if you have newer drivers in your group.2. Also worth double checking the check-in and checkout times before booking (4pm/10am), this is clearly listed and entirely on us for not paying closer attention, but the window is a bit tight if you're coming from far away.Franny was responsive, warm and communicative throughout our stay. We would absolutely recommend this property and would happily return. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
The house was well-designed, clean, and very comfortable. The location provided easy access to shopping, dining, and the ocean. I would highly recommend it!
